The basic sentence is the building block of sentence style. From the simple sentence to the complex is the key to variety and rhythm, key aspects of an individual writing style.
The basic sentence contains a Subject and Verb and an Object or Object Phrase. [S +V+ O]
Here is an example: I like pizza. [S + V + O]
This sentence offers little opportunity for variation. But by simply moving the Object [pizza] to the Subject position, it is possible to get some variety.
Now we have: Pizza I like. [O + S + V]
To build complexity from the simple sentence it is necessary to expand the subject and / or the object.
Here is an attempt to expand the subject: I, fearful of strange foods, hating combinations, and not too crazy about tomatoes mixed with cheese, like pizza.
Here is an attempt to expand the object: I like pizza, almost any kind, almost any brand, especially home made, but without anchovies, those overly salted little critters.
Now
it’s your turn.
→Start with a simple sentence of only three elements: S + V + O.
→Expand the subject, then expand the object.
→Then combine the two sentences or write a different one that expands both the subject an object.
